Thursday just gone, late morning on the very rainy M3 somewhere in Dorset...... a Gold Estate, tidy looking. Driven by an old Geezer (not rae  :P )

We came past you in a battered old V70 D5, so you wouldn't have spotted me

All I know is that I was going from Ringwood to Oxford, I was on the motorway, somewhere towards southampton ;D

My V70 isa dog cosmetically, and the gearbox is fubar so I go everywhere in winter mode, to avoid the 2-1 gearchange throwing me through the windscreen.

But, it has bags of power, handles like a treat, feels very solid, is economical, and literally just refuses to die ;D ;D

Yes, that's it ;D :y

I don't usually use the route, I prefer to go via Fordingbridge, and cross the new forest, joining the A34 at Sutton Scotney :y
